I have friends with children in public school and I have two children in private/catholic schools (Merry Moppet Preschool & St. Francis High School). In speaking with those parents, the following are some differences in teaching and extra curricular activities;

(1) Teacher to Student ratio (Private & Catholic are much higher than Public)


(2) Parent involvement is about equal depending on the school.

(3) School continuity (school - church - community - extra curricular) is much better with the Private / Catholic schools

Obviously there are more answers to this question, but for now this can give you a small grasp on what the differences are.
